Former wicketkeeper-batter Moin Khan has joined Javed Miandad in supporting jailed former Pakistan captain and Prime Minister Imran Khan, emphasizing the immense contributions he made to country’s cricket.

Imran, Pakistan's World Cup-winning captain, has been in jail since 2023 over corruption charges. He has faced several health issues in recent times.

Amid the ongoing Lord’s Test between England and Pakistan, Imran’s sons Kasim and Sulaiman Khan interacted with Michael Atherton for Sky Sports, where they alleged a "blatant" attempt to kill their father in prison, claiming his conditions have severely deteriorated under solitary confinement and that he is being denied critical medical care.

After Miandad publicly called for Khan's release, Moin urged the government to ensure that the legendary cricketer-turned-politician receives the necessary medical treatment.

In a video doing rounds on X, Moin asked all Pakistani cricketers to raise their voices in support of Imran Khan.

“Imran Khan is very unwell. I appeal to the government of Pakistan that Imran be granted his rights as a former Prime Minister and citizen of Pakistan with regard to his treatment," Moin said.

“I also appeal to all Pakistan cricketers to raise their voice in support of Imran. Those of us who played with him learned a lot from him, and he gave Pakistan cricket so much," he added.

Earlier, 21 former international cricket captains—including Indian greats Kapil Dev and Sunil Gavaskar—signed a joint letter to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif demanding immediate, adequate medical care and humane treatment for Imran Khan in prison. No former Pakistani cricketers were among the letter's signatories.
